Intel's crazy plan for 1nm silicon

FIVE NEW CHIP PRODUCTION NODES in four years. That was Intel’s plan to get back to technology leadership. It has now added a new 1nm lithography node to its roadmap, due in 2027. But here's the thing: in terms of products to buy, Intel has achieved little of its original plan. So, what’s going on?

Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 Super

LONG AGO, before the reign of the Supers, there was a graphics card. It was bold, gauche, and built with the blood of a Titan, with gaming in mind.

The takeaway is that Intel isn't giving up on Arc, and there are reasons to think that Battlemage might just be the bomb.

Both companies have a range of cards priced from around $250 up to $1,600 or more. But with Nvidia's recently released 40-series Super models, AMD didn't look quite as competitive as before.
